Is there some kind of filter or other function in Wordpress that removes email address’ from the content when creating a new site?

I’ve a site with some contact information on them and every time I enter an Email address in the content area it removes it again.

As far as I know I haven’t installed any plugin which will do that and there is no evidence that there is a filter in my functions file which do it either.

Is there a reason why this is happening and maybe how to solve it so I can post my Email address’.

None of the the_content filters, as far as I'm aware, filter out email addresses. I just tested on a clean install, and verified that I was able to output an email address in post content.
